Very, very nice. Thank you for not putting DA on that frame. It really is so much more special than an off the shelf American brand...

[Harryn]

Pure art, wow. I wish you many happy and safe miles.

 

Do not take your eyes off the bike rack for a nanosecond at the races!

[Dgas]

So where are you going to ride it?

[Veebee]

A beauty! Bike looks awesome, many safe and happy miles.

That was going to be my only negative comment. Dress her up nicely for the pics Patch. Chain on the big dog, crank at 3 and 9 o'clock etc.

Crank had to be at 6 o'clock,  could lean frame against chain

The Campy components were the biggest surprise, really pretty stuff, almost upstages the bike.
